Police said a silver sedan was traveling at a high rate of speed northbound on 42nd Street around 10 p.m. when it crossed the two southbound lanes, hitting the building. Rescuers recovered the bodies of 24-year-old Dustin Hollenback and 20-year-old Dylan Thompson.

“We're really sad about the two people that died. To us it's just money and stuff, we'll recover from it,” said Scott Goff, owner.

City officials said what is left of the building may have to be destroyed. Goff wonders if he can save anything inside his thrift shop.

“We're waiting to find out when the city will release the building back to us to get our stuff out,” Goff said.

The store is closed for now, but Goff said he may have to start from square one to reopen it.

“If they don't think the building is safe, then they won't let us enter and then I guess we'll lose whatever property is in there,” Goff said.

City Engineer Todd Pfitzer said experts will see if the building needs to be demolished.

“I don't think the building itself is going to be salvageable, but the structural engineer is going to help us out,” Pfitzer said.

Until the city can safety take down a billboard above the building, 42nd Street will remain closed.

“It's big enough if it came down, it'd come all the way out into the street,” he said.

Crews will have to take down the unstable sign soon because it is an emergency route from Interstate 80.

“Until we find out whether or not we're going to be able to recover some of the property, we really don't have any answers,” Goff said.
